Meta-analysis reveals the association of common variants in the uncoupling protein (UCP) 1-3 genes with body mass index variability.
The relationship between uncoupling protein (UCP) 1-3 polymorphisms and susceptibility to obesity has been investigated in several genetic studies. However, the impact of these polymorphisms on obesity is still under debate, with contradictory results being reported. Until this date, no meta-analysi...
